Lakers made 3rd in the league with Luka only half the season and no defence. This new team is twice as strong on defence than last year. Reeves has the whole year now to integrate with the new players. Even if the West is stacked our team still better than our playoff run. Trade Vincent & Knect for more defensive wing options for a championship team π€
What sticks out even most to me in Lukas body comparison they showed is how much broader his shoulders got, heβs really been in the gym working , great to see man.
They still only have one first round pick available at the deadline. They will hold on to it until the offseason when they can package 3 picks and go after either Jokic/Giannis.
Lakers have always been hated. Luka has been hated outside of Mavs fans. So itβs not surprising national media and nba fans hating on the lakers. As you been saying this lakers team should have a chip on their shoulder this season.
If the Lakers would move Rui and Reaves to the bench and start Knecht and Vando, or Smart and Vando ,watch how the media would change their ratings about the Lakers
Last season we were undermaned and still over achieved by winning 50 games, this year we have a much better squad I expect us to finish top 3 same as last year with different results = championship! Remember were still not done making moves
The Magic might be a rising power in the east but they might have difficulty going over the bumps there and then realize 1 of their backcourt (Bane or Suggs) core needs to be replaced by a more reliable ball handler and scorer. Enter a 30-37M Austin Reaves ππ
I am as a homer has kind be but they still has the worst defensive back court in the nba, no bench, a center that no one wanted and lebron as great as he is , is 41.
we needed to add Q Grimes and trade with the nets for sharp and Williams and we really needed to add Nicola Jurisic and Melvin Ajinca for all our 30 year old players
The reason they would post all that stuff is to get clicks and views and make money because it becomes headlines when they talk about the most popular team
Have u watched Doncic in Euro? I don't care if u loose 100lbs. DEFENSE is about Desire. It's about Effort and a Will to do it. Doncic STILL plays the same as he always did. Letting his man go by him, and reserving his EFFORT for the Offensive End. The Media Picked Correctly
Something about the β3β turning into a β4β in LeBronβs age is making people assume heβs going to suddenly turn into a 15/3/5 kind of player. Even though itβs only one year from 39 to 40.
All these so called Laker fans assuming the FO aren't trying to make moves. But fail to accept the most likely reality is no one wants to trade with them. Why would any team willingly make a great deal to help the Lakers win another chip.
I know you guys have to come up with content every day, but who really cares about media opinions or video game ratings? Only actual wins and losses count.
ππππ looking at the conf and division records for WC the Lakers were the 2nd best team that ran into a team with bigs. itβs funny how the prediction is for the lakers to go backwards, even taking into consideration towards the successful lakers off-season
The Nuggets and the Bucks have actually nothing left to trade because they're actually trying to go all in. The Lakers are just hoping for another exclusive trade like with Luka to be offered to them. The DFS trade was a waste of picks. They traded an expiring contract for another expiring contract and then let him walk 40 games later.
AYTON TAKING HIS GAME TO A WHOLE NOTHER LEVEL, AND HE'S PLAYING WITH LUKA AND LEBRON THE TOP IQ IN THE GAME, EASY MONEY AYTON NOT KNOW SLOUCH AND HE'S TRYING TO GET BIG DOLLARS AND HE'S WITH THE BEST FRANCHISE IN THE WORLD WATCH OUT
Sheesh, the Lakers lose Davis and add Luka, and the "We need a big" conversation isn't as pressing because NOW the Lakers need more help on the perimeter?
The perimeter being the bigger weakness was the issue last season when Davis was on the team. But stripping the backcourt even more and using picks on a backup center is all I ever heard about.

Jeanie and Rob having a heart attack every time Luka bumps, I can't wait the game, it's at 8:30pm my time

It always helps a pro athlete improve their performance if they lose weight in their face π

Talk all the trades but most likely its a trade deadline or cap space 2026 will hapen ππ
ESPN always hates us.

Ya, the narrative that Lakers never do anything midseason is silly. In the last 3 seasons
Luka
DFS
DLo Vando Beasley
Rui

If Vando has ANY type of consistent offense this season that will put the Lakers over the top.
LeBron has always been built like a PF – he's 6' 9" 240 like Karl Malone (the prototypical power forward).
